A vector bundle is a geometric structure. For each point of a topological space (or manifold, or algebraic cluster), a vector space is attached in a mutually compatible way. These vector spaces used "stick together" to form a new topological space (or manifold, or algebraic cluster).[1]
A typical example is the tangent bundle of a manifold: attach theTangent space。Or consider a planeSmooth curve, then attach a straight line perpendicular to the curve at each point of the curve;This is the curve“Normal bundle"。
The vector bundle is a parallelizable manifold if it is a trivial bundle.[5]

If B is a k-dimensional smooth flow, then there is a bijection Vectn(B)↔[B,Gn,n(2k+1)], where Vectn(B) Is the equivalent class of vector bundle ξ on B, [B, Gn,n(2k+1)]Is the homotopy class of ∘ f, f: B → Gn,kIs the classification mapping of ξ, I: Gn,nk→Gn,n(2k+1)Include mapping for.[5]

All classes of vector bundles and projections of bundles form acategory。If we limit it to smooth manifolds and smooth bundles, we have the category of smooth vector bundles.
We can consider a fixed bottom spaceXA category consisting of all vector bundles of.Let's take those in the bottom spaceXOnIdentity mapping(identity map) as a radio in this categoryThat is to say, the bundle meets the following commutative graph:

Given a vector bundle π:E→XAnd an open subsetU, we can consider that πUOnsection, that is, continuous functions:U→EMeet πs= idU. In essence, the section givesUA vector taken from the vector space attached to the point at each point of, and the value should be continuous.
For example, the section of the tangent bundle of a differential manifold is the vector field on the manifold.

Not OX-Each layer of the module is derived from the vector bundle in this way: only the local free layer can be obtained from this method.(Reason: local, we need to find a projectionU×R→UThese are just continuous functionsU→R, and this function is continuousU→Rn-Tuple.)
Further speaking:XThe category of real vector bundles on isequivalenceOn OX-Modules are locally free and finitely generated by layers.
So we can regard the vector bundle as being located at OX-In the category of module layer;The latter is commutative, so we can calculate the projective kernel of the vector bundle.

holdReal vector spaceIf you change it to complex, you get complex vector bundles.This is a special case of reduction of structure group.You can also use otherTopological domainVector space, but relatively rare.[1]
If we allow the use of arbitraryBanach space(not justR), you can getBanach cluster.
